Fermi'S Paradox       
                          
                                          
 On  Earth  (The Planet Where I  Live)  A 
 Lot  Of Us  Have Antennas On Our  Houses 
 Or  Balconies,  We   Have   Built  Large 
 Antennas  For Larger  Bandwith,  We Have 
      Build Specialized Antennaes For     
    Specific Wavelengths (And Sent Them   
 Into  Orbit), We'Ve  Built Large As Fuck 
              Antenna Arrays              
 We'Ve Virtually Built  An Antenna With A 
          Dish As Large As Earth.         
                                          
 We'Ve  Learned About Our Position In The 
     Solar System, Our Solar Systems      
 Placement   In   The   Galaxy,  And  Our 
 Galaxys Placement  In The Local Cluster, 
 And  Our  Local Clusters  Place In The 
          Grand Scheme Of Things          
                                          
 And  We'Re  Moving  Around  The  Sun  At 
 Velocity  And The Suns Moving Around The 
 Center Of  The  Galaxy At  Velocity  And 
 The  Galaxy Is  Moving Toward  Andromeda 
   And We'Re Both Moving Anticlockwise    
 Around The Galaxy.  And  We As A Species 
 Have Learned To Take All That In Account 
                                          
 And  Despite  All This, Despite  All Our 
    (Cliche) Beaming Of Fucking Stellar   
 Radio  Programmes Out  In  Fucking Space 
 At  The  Speed  Of  Light  (Light Is Our 
 Medium! Goodspeed You, Black Emperor!),  
      Despite Ghosts Helping And The      
     Collective Consciousness Lowpass     
   Filtering, Despite Our Very Obvious    
 Beaming  Of  All Our  Secrets  In  Every 
          Direction Known To Us,          
                                          
 No      One       Has        Answered

             So Why Is That?              
                                          
 Most  Opponents To  Intelligent Life  In 
 The  Universe Say It'S Because  You Need 
 A  Class One-Or-The-Other  Star And  The 
 Planet  Needs  To  Be  At  A  See-And-So 
 Distance Away From  The Star (Like There 
           Has To Be A Planet!)           
                                          
 But   Really   Isn'T  That  Keeping  The 
      Definition Of Life Really Lax?      
                                          
 I Think Everyone  Agrees That We Have No 
 Idea  What We'Re Doing  (And It Probably 
                  Shows)

 This Year And Try  To Snatch  Some Beers
